Possibly the most photographed tree in Scotland? This was taken the evening before my Devil's Pulpit shot. I had finally arrived at the B&B but was pretty late and had the idea of trying to shoot this tree as it wasn't that far away. Unfortunately the weather was so good and it was a Saturday so there were families having evening meals and kids climbing over the roots so it wasn't until after the sun had set that I bagged a shot. The roots were nearly surrounded by water but not 100% hence the crop. I managed to drag more detail out of the shadows than I was expecting 9( credit to the Canon sensor in the R5) but purposely left it almost silhouetted as I thought it looked natural. I'm can't pretend it's in any way 'original' but never shot it before and, considering there wasn't a cloud in the sky I liked the early Blue Hour light.
Thanks for viewing.
